Mr.. Barry's Spectacles.

Mr.. Thomas B. Barry, prominent off
Ger of the Knights of Labor, has just re-
turned to Philadelphia from trip through
! Virginia, North and South Carolina and
| Georgia, and he has given some of the I'M
pressions of his trip to Philadelphia news

what kind of spectacles Mr.. Barry wears
They must be very bad spectacles since they
do not permit him to see things as they are.
| It may be that Mr. Barry cannot. see things
as they really are even with the aid of the
best of spectacles. There are men afflicted
in that way. It is charitable to suppose.
however, that Mr.. Barry sees things wrong
ly because of a defect in his spectacles and
n-t because of any mental defect
He says that a Southerner who tolls with
his hands is looked down upon. 1t wonld
be interesting to know with what class of
people he was associated in this section. AS
man of his calibre would feel like a fish
out of water with the slums and outcasts of
society, and as such information he gives
can be obtained by observation among no
other class, probably he consulted
the advance sheets of Mr.. Ingalls, historical
HONtlt vi utlNtu lubO lu6 IlCueo VI III
Blaines memoirs my first work." he
says, drought me to Virginia, where
l learned that to be colored is to be a
negro" If Mr.. Barry had consulted such
negroes as Minister Taylor he would have
learned that there are no colored men in
this country unless they be Indians, and
that the negroes are beginning to regard the
meaningless term, ''colored people," as one
of reproach. Mr.. Barry can impart his
knowledge on this subjectto theencyclopa-
dia-makers, who will recognize init piece
of newly-found information. "Everywhere
went" he continues, ~ heard from the peo-
pie, white and black, the most horrible sto-
ries of intimidation at elections" This is
the same old story that has been revamped
by Republican emissar:es in the South for
the last quarter century, and Mr.. Barry de-
serves no particular credit for proclaiming
it anew. Can it be possible that he is an
emissary of the bloody shirt leaders of the
Republican party and that his Southern
trip was IN their interest?
There are several other choice bits which
Mr.. Barry has given to the public,
but the above are sufficient to show
that it will be wiser for him to attend to
labor questions, and let those relating to
politics alone.

They Ought to Have Sprung Up.

One evening while we were making a neigh

ANALYSIS OF A TEAR.
Things Which Make Dewdrop upon
a Woman's Cheek.

From the London Queen.
The principal element in the composition OF
tear, as may readily be supposed, is water. The
other elements are salt, soda, phosphate OF lime,
phosphate of soda and mucus, each IN small
proportions. A dried tear seen through a NIL
croscope of good average power presents pc
cular appearance. The water, after evapora-
tiop, leaves behind it the saline ingredients
which amalgamate and form theuSe yes INTO
heightened cross lines, and look ike NUMBER
of minute fish bones. The tears are secreCed III
what are called the "lachryInal glands, STU
ated over the eyeball and underneath the llu.
The contents of these glands are carried along
and under the inner surface of the eyellds oy
means of six or seven very line channels, anu
are discharged little above the cartilage sup
porting the lid
The discharge of tears from the iachrymal
glands is not occasional and accidental, as Is
commonly supposed. but continuous. IL goes
on both day aud nj yht-though less abundantly
at night-through the ''conduits," and spreads
equally over the surface of the pupil, IN virtue
of the inceSsanJ movement of the lids. After
serving its purpose, the flow is carried away ny
two little drains, situated in that corner OF etlcn
eye rearest the nose-into which they run-and
called the 'lachrymal points" The usefulness
of this quiet how of tears, to both men and
beasts, is manifest There is such an immense
quantity of fine dust floating in the air and con
stantly getting into the eyes, that, but Tor IT,
they would soon become choked. Very little is
requisite to keep the ball free, and when some
obnoxious subStance-smoke, an insect or the
like that affects the nerves-does make its
way in, an increased flow is poured out to sweep
il away.

Christmas.

Christmas is the merriest, happiest day of
all the year in all Christian countries, and
it ought to be- OF all the holidays it is the
one that brings the purest thoughts and the
highest pleasures The aim of all is to give
happiness to others, and in doing so they in
crease their own happiness. Christmas is
the children's day. They think of it from
one years end to the other. They know
about it as soon as they know anything.
In every household, whether it be the abode
of poverty or of wealth, Santa Claus is a
familiar name.
A distinguished divine of New York
lately proposed to abolish Santa Claus"
but his reasons for doing so are not good
ones. The world couldn't get along without
him. He is a favorite not alone with chill
dren The middle-aged and those who have
almost finished the journey of life welcome
with glad hearts the gifts which, we agree
in admitting, he distributes. The gifts are
not priced for their value, but as an evil
dence that we are remembered and that
there are hearts in which there are
kindly thoughts of us. Without
friends and without loved ones the
world would have few attractions.
What worthless things would wealth and
the prizes of genius and courage be if there
were none with whom we cared to share
them or to whom we desired to give pleasure
by means of them!
Christmas makes old hearts young and
young hearts glad. 1t draws parents nearer
their children and strengthens children's
love for their parents. 1t binds together
more closely the family circle and breaks
down the barriers which have been raised
in the struggle for riches, glory, success or
the attainment of purely selfish ends. Let us
be thankful, then, for a holiday that means
so much to us, and let us enjoy it, forgetting
the trials Of yesterday and shutting out the
shadow of the dull cares of tomorrow.
And while we are enjoying ourselves let us
not forget that there may be those whose
Christmas may be made brighter
by little help from our well-filled larders
Charity is an eternal debt" and it is well
to pay some of it at this joyous season,
when payment is easier and more liberal.
The consciousness of having done a good
deed will help to round out the pleasures of
the day.

Nationality in Boards.
From The Boston Advertiser.

An observant friend who had been examining
a collection of faces represen ting large num-
Der of the public men in the United States,
made the following general conclusions in re-
gard TO national types in the cutting of the
beard, which contain more than q grain of
truth 1.-THE simple moustache, with the rest
of the face clean shaven is the prevailing
American type, )" he said. The OLD. time Yankee
chin whisker like that Of the traditional Uncle
Sam, is no longer the national cut. In the same
way the old French type Of the imperial, or
heavy moustache and Tong goatee, has given
way in France to the present type of q close cut
full beard trimmed to double points on the
chin The German and Russian national types
are heavy full boards parted at the middle of
the chin. The English type is a small, short
cropped moustache, with small square side
growths. The general South European type of
Spain or Italy is either an entirely clear-shaven
face or else very small moustache and goatee
crowded close about the month";

Another of Bullock's Interviews.

The latest interview with ex-Gov. Rufus
B. Bullock, who is very loquacious lately, is
dated from Atlanta. and published in the
estly hints that his opinions are not of much
Importance, as he has not been prominently
identified with any political party since he
resigned the governorship of Georgia. He
speaks of the resignation in manner inn
plying the voluntary laying down of oner-
Gus public burdens that required more of his
time than ne could conveniently give and
the allusion to that tragic act must bring
a broad SIN lie to the lips of Georgians who
have not forgotten how he held on to the
office as long as he possibly could, and re
linquished it not from choice, but from
necessity. The people of this State are will
ing to regard Gov. Bullock with a consider
able degree of liberation, since the events in
which he figured so prominently are long
past, and they appreciate the grim humor
that pervades the reference to his resignation.
Gov. Bullock's career in Georgia has been
full Of stirring events. 1t is not believed
that he was elected Governor of the State.
A majority of the votes were cast for Gen.
Gordon, but master of political intrigue
boldly carried out the scheme of seating
Bullock, whose administration was marked
by some of the most stupendous happenings
in tn history of the State, and whose con-
duct to the last was that of one possessing
pluck boldneSs an determination. Subse-
quently he was potent factor in At
lanta's growth, and his work for that city

sins against Georgia, and was trying to
atone for them by giving his energies to the
building up of her capitol city.
Gov. Bullock repeats the statement made
a week or two ago that he no longer regards
ex-President Hayes as the only man whom
the Republicans can elect next year. Mr..
Hayes, he says, has assured him by letter
that he does not want to become the Repub-
lican candidate, and Gov. Bullock now
thinks that any man whods nominated on a
protection platform will be elected Very
likely he sees that his assertion that Mr..
Hayes was the only Republican who could
be elected amounted to a virtual admission
of Republican defeat, as it is plain that Mr..
Hayes cannot be nominated, SO he makes
the Presidents message the pretext for a
change of opinion. Gov. Bullock's par
TALLY for Mr.. Hayes was quite natural, in
asmuch as both he and the President
climbed into Office by the grace of return
ing board. His opinion that Mr.. Hayes
could again be elected shows that he does
not know how the people regard men who
have accepted offices to which they were
not elected, and the entire interview bears
evidence of his long retirement from active
politics

Mr.. Lamar,s Nomination.

The statement comes from Macon that
Secretary Lamar will make his home in
that city if his nomination as Associate
Justice of the Supreme Court is not con-
firmed. This is doubtless nothing but a
rumor, and it is pretty certain that it is not
based upon anything that Mr.. Lamar has
said There is no good reason for thinking
that his nomination will be rejected The
President doubtless took good care to find
out the sentiment of the Senate before he
nominated him. If he had not been as
sured that the nomination would be con-
firmed he would not have sent his name to
the Senate. He would have kept him in
the Cabinet where, no doubt, he would
like to have him stay.
Enough Republican Senators will vote
for Mr.. Lamar's nomination to insure its
confirmation. Doubtless that is understood.
What the Republicans are aiming to do is
to make as much political capital out of the
nomination as they can. They may even
have a fierce debate over it. When they
have han their talk, however, the nomina-
ton will go through all right.
There is a silly story afoat that the
Supreme Court is about evenly divided
on the great telephone case of Draw
baugh vs. Bell, and that it is de-
sirable that Mr.. Lamar should not GO
on the bench until that case is dis
posed of as he took some official action wit
regard to it as Secretary of the Interior. If
he were to become a member of the court
at once he would take no part in that case.
1t has been argued, and perhaps the decision
is already written. Doubtless other foolish
stories will be circulated before the nomina-
ton is disposed of.
